Add me to the sore boob club. Serious bloat, nausea and headaches 24/7. I got sick with DD once, but I've already been sick with this one 3 times. I'm so tired all the time.

Being pregnant and parenting a toddler blows.

+1 on being pregnant and parenting a toddler.  

[seadragon2013]

I've been fatigued, queasy, and extra hormonal. Also, an enhanced sense of smell and looser joints. It all comes and goes, though, so I've been trying to take advantage of the good days/hours.

And dealing with a preschooler while pregnant truly does blow. School cannot start soon enough!

[gingerspice2]

Also, body hair is growing faster than I have the energy to keep up with. DD touched my leg this morning and said "ouch".

[blondie]

Fatigue, sore boobs, and instead of nausea, almost instantaneously upchucking.

[jellykat2]

I think I was in denial about the bloat until I put the scrubs on that I always wear for procedures at work. So tight. So uncomfortable. There is no way I'm gonna hide this for another 6 weeks.

[onesweetworld]

Can someone explain the loose joints....?

[blackasnight]

EVERYTHING SMELLS AND MAKES ME WANT TO VOM.

Also I am having wild vivid dreams already. Last night I had a dream that I found love with a gorgeous man on Bachelor in Paradise.

Yes! I love the vivid sex dreams....

Also who !? Lol

Confirmed pityriasis rosea. So now of course I'm freaking out because the doctor said that there is a small chance of increased risk of miscarriage. Cue me sitting in my car and sobbing.

Agreed. 

Thankfully I have a 6 year old to take care of the toddler this time.

Hang in there mustloveerica. Sending hugs!

Hugs. I know how much anxiety that can bring. But try and stay positive. Honestly all the research I did when I had it - all the studies/cases that said that we're tiny, and honestly IMO not statistically significant.

[ThankfulSnail]

Hugs and good vibes, mustloveerica.

I am not having much, symptom-wise. My boobs feel fuller and the nipples just started getting sore yesterday. I feel nauseous if I get too hungry. I've been very, very tired- falling asleep on the couch in the evening or going to bed over an hour earlier than normal, but still waking up feeling tired. I'm looking forward to DH taking DD so I can sleep in tomorrow morning.

[blackasnight]

mustloveerica ((hugs)) Sending positive vibes

It was Ben. I guess things didn't work out with him and Lauren 😂

Your body releases a hormone called Relaxin when you are pregnant that loosens the connective tissue in your joints so that your pelvis can expand during pregnancy and birth. However, it also loosens other joints and can make pregnant women more prone to injuries. It can also lead to pelvic girdle pain in 2nd and 3rd tri.

I've noticed my joints slipping after jogging for the past week. I basically just need to take it a bit easier and go a bit slower.

[heisenberg]

Lots of hugs, mustloveerica.

Thank you. Did not experience this the last 2 times. I also never made it past 9w.

[onesweetworld]

Hugs to you mustloveerica. Everything will be okay!

[starfisher]

Sore boobs, peeing all the time, some nausea on and off, and my hips feel loose. My jeans are done for - my "blump" is popping already and I don't know how to hide this at work for another 4-5 weeks.

[nic1231]

The bloat was uncontrollable and my boobs got bigger and hella sensative.

This! I was shocked at the blump when I woke up this morning.

I text my mom a picture and was like welp guess no more shirtless Beachbody photos. Haha

[vasc]

Huge blump here. My growing ute is pushing all the fat up and out. Ugh.

Fatigue and insomnia too.

I've been taking unisom and b6 to keep the nausea at bay. I think the unisom is contributing to me sleeping super hard. Although I'm still exhausted.

[risalyn0904]

I have horrible gas pains in my upper abdomen. It sucks.

[iqeb]

Today I survived 2 poop diaper changes and feeding the 12 mo spinach with just dry heaves, but hurled unloading the clean dishwasher. I don't get it either.
